The sleeving always starts enthusiastically, then I have to fight through the wave of boredom, then finish strong. I learned to sleeve the basics *first* so you continue to get to look at interesting cards toward then end.

Also (and I know this isn’t everyone’s cup o’tea), Earth-616. A Marvel universe cube. cubecobra.com/cube/list/Ea...

A lot of it could, I’m sure, but I’m not sure I’m looking for the Eastern aesthetic, personally.

At some point I’ll take the quickly-growing pile of cards on my desk and digitize it. Once I get through the rares boxes…

I set hurricane aside as a possibility (the Ice Age art), and I am considering a Revised bolt, but it may be a huge power outlier). (Responded to wrong post earlier)

YES. THIS. I have a couple of Druids so far that are skirting the edge.

I’ll take a look! As I’m pulling all of the cards I’ve dug up so far, I see a few “factions” beginning to form. Soldiers/Knights, Pirates, “The Wild”, etc. It’s definitely fun to have to poke around the art in some obscure cards to make sure nobody has sparkly hands or hidden homunculi about.

Thanks! This is great. So far I’ve been digging through boxes of bulk while I “watch”/listen to whatever podcast/media amuses me at the time. It’s cathartic.

So far: lots of Humans, wolves, bears, fish, birds, and weapons lol.

I’ve been designing (yet) another cube by sifting through my bulk. I’m trying to take the “magic” out of Magic. No fantasy elements whatsoever. No visible magic, no fantasy races, only things that would/could exist in a mundane medieval setting. Scryfall searching is a *challenge*. #mtgcube

I curb that desire by building more cubes. I know it’s just a delaying tactic, but I don’t want to play digitally. I want to sit down with friends and sling cardboard.

I also envision it being primarily a four-person draft format, as getting 8 together with my recent move is a pipe dream.

Muppetpastor77 @muppetpastor77.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
My initial thought was to have a heavy hand with raise dead/regrowth effects in the cube. I was thinking initially of a 60 card pool, and having the exile zone persist through games/matches and having means to access it. I know the logistics are going to be challenging!

Muppetpastor77 @muppetpastor77.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
My new, longer commute has given me ample time to ponder cube ideas. Anyone out there have an “iron man” cube where cards that end the game in a GY are gone for the remainder of the draft? Anything close? I want to pursue the idea but having a jumping off point would be fantastic. #mtgcube

Muppetpastor77 @muppetpastor77.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
Yep. The eternal struggle.

Muppetpastor77 @muppetpastor77.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
Not amazing. I’ve found most decks that get made are focused on one of the creature types, and it is pretty below rate when you don’t have a full party. I won’t remove it though, as it is dead on the theme.

discord.com/channels/263... First draft complete. Thread in the CubeTalk discord. Decided to ensure that *almost* all +1/+1 counter effects are a one-shot effect. Intentionally went light on fixing to make multicolor power-outliers more of an investment to play. Not intended to be color balanced

Working on a new project I’m calling “Polarity”. A rules modified cube where creatures with +1/+1 and -1/-1 counters can’t block each other”. The cube will focus on using those counters as a resource, more than building up and snowballing with them. cubecobra.com/cube/list/Po.... This is where I am

Fine, it adds depth, and the effect on game length is often overstated.

Having recently moved, and not yet finding/establishing a cube group, I spent time digging through my C/U bulk for cards I liked the vibes of. I then built a big 'ol cube. cubecobra.com/cube/list/Pe... Tons of fixing and multicolor, but low to the ground aggro has room here, as well. #mtgcube

Moving from New England to the Port Saint Lucie, FL area. Bringing most of my 14 cubes. Anyone have a cube playgroup/recommended lgs in the area? #mtgcube

So far I have Naya, Mardu and Esper covered. (Along with a Rakdos 2HG cube). Still trying to decide what my next shard/wedge cube will be.

Is it a sign that I have too many cubes if I forgot she was actually *in* this cube? Oof

I do love a Godsire. And all of his big Naya pals. I still have some color combos to build before I wrap back around to another Naya list, though!

Muppetpastor77 @muppetpastor77.bsky.social · 04/07/2026
So far it’s a giant pile of bulk rares that meet the “bar cube” criteria of no tokens, dice or shuffling. Also two sets of 5 basic lands and 5 guild gates. It’s a battle box. Complexly untested so far.

Muppetpastor77 @muppetpastor77.bsky.social · 03/07/2026
No counters, tokens, shuffling or sleeves. Just pure jank.

I'm working on something I'm calling the "Big Bad Bulk Rare Bargain Bin Bar Battle Box". It *is*, in fact, self-explanatory. #mtgcube (adjacent)

I did want to say, again, that I very much enjoyed my lackluster 1-2 record in the Bodleian cube in the 2nd draft this weekend! I had the Sultai Urza pile that was missing a Watery Grave to make work lol.

Muppetpastor77 @muppetpastor77.bsky.social · 23/06/2026
It's one of those quirky cards I always look at and want to make work somewhere. I should write those down sometime... lol

I always get that feeling when I see another golgari 3-drop in my bulk: I always wanted to build a cube where Sarulf could thrive.
